I’ve been doing a little background work on what I would need to install the early S10 T5 (86 model) I bought a couple years ago…..into my 1951 pickup.
My preference would be skipping the adapter plate to get the shifter as far forward as possible. The 10 spline/21 tooth Jeep shaft is how I assumed I’d do it. However…..
If my clutch needs replacing anyway, is there any good reason to do that? Can I just buy a clutch that matches the S10 spline count and trim the S10 input shaft? I suspect there’s more to it, but I haven’t yet found that specific answer on Lugnutz’s site.
